﻿As the saying goes, March comes in like a lion, and......well, I sure hope it started in February and March will now go out like a lamb! The snow banks in York are incredible, but the kids are sure having a blast in the snow!

The parent group supported a Family Fun Night this past weekend at the Portland Pirates and my family and I had a blast sitting with York students and families cheering them on. Be sure to be on the lookout for our Spring sporting event: Family fun with the Sea Dogs in May. Another fun night under the lights in Portland!

Gearing up for the end of March, a group of parents from the parent community are planning a night to talk about school nutrition. Mark your calendars for the 26th for activities for the kids, some great guest speakers aswell as food tasting from the VES cafeteria. The parent group is always looking for more volunteers. Even if you cannot make the meetings, you can be part of planning these fun events, but contacting the parent group President or me.

Thank you for all you do to support the York schools,April Noble, Principal

Calling all scientists! Last year VES had its very first after school science fair. It was a great success and many great young minds were at work. I am looking for a parent(s) to organize this event along with my support. If you have an interest in organizing the fair, please contact me at 363-4870. ~April Noble

THE SCHOLASTIC BOOK FAIR IS COMING TO VILLAGE March 27 to April 3

The Book Fair will be held in the library and each class will visit during their scheduled library time. After looking at hundreds of titles, students make a "wish list" that is sent home. Students can make purchases before, during and after school. All money raised will be used to support Library programming. More information will be sent home during the week of March 16-20. Thank you in advance for your support.
